House Judiciary Committee to Hear Evidence as Impeachment Vote Nears

VOA News

   Democratic and Republican lawyers are set to present evidence Monday to
   members of the U.S. House Judiciary Committee as the panel moves toward
   a possible vote this week on articles of impeachment against President
   Donald Trump.

   The hearing is scheduled to include presentations from lawyers from
   both the Judiciary Committee and the House Intelligence Committee.

   The White House will not be participating. White House Counsel Pat
   Cipollone criticized the impeachment inquiry unfolding in the
   Democrat-majority House of Representatives as "completely baseless" and
   called potential impeachment articles "a reckless abuse of power."

   Trump posted Tweets Sunday labeling the process a "witch hunt," a
   "hoax," and lacking due process, while also sharing numerous posts from
   others saying he was being treated unfairly.

   Democrats say the evidence against the president is clear.
